slub: Take node lock during object free checks Only applies to scenarios where debugging is on: Validation of slabs can currently occur while debugging information is updated from the fast paths of the allocator. This results in various races where we get false reports about slab metadata not being in order. This patch makes the fast paths take the node lock so that serialization with slab validation will occur. Causes additional slowdown in debug scenarios.
